The book includes chapters on ethnoveterinary medicine used to prevent and treat ticks and tick-borne diseases, infectious diseases and parasites. Ethnoveterinary practices in parts of the world which have not been comprehensively reviewed before are highlighted, including Estonia, Belarus and the Maghreb - the north-western tip of Africa. A fascinating account of African ethnoveterinary medicine and traditional husbandry practices is provided by a veteran in the field with a wealth of practical experience in the area. Neglected areas of research involve the relationship of ethnoveterinary medicine with environmental, ethical, cultural and gender aspects, and leading experts explore these issues. The book is intended to provide an informative compilation of current research and future prospects in ethnoveterinary medicine, which hopes to inform and encourage investigations in new directions. Sustainable development requires a concerted effort to combine indigenous knowledge systems with scientific research to improve animal health. This is the case not only in rural areas where access to orthodox veterinary health care may be limited, but also against the backdrop of antibiotic resistance and increased demand for alternative and complementary therapies to enhance the health of both production and companion animals. Students, academics and veterinary professionals will find this book a useful addition to knowledge on present and future aspects of ethnoveterinary research. 606 $aPlant science 606 $aBotany 606 $aVeterinary medicine 606 $aFood?Biotechnology 606 $aAgricultural economics 606 $aPlant Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24000 606 $aVeterinary Microbiology, Parasitology and Infectious Diseases$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H67020 606 $aFood Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C15001 606 $aAgricultural Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W47000 615 0$aPlant science. 615 0$aBotany. 615 0$aVeterinary medicine. 615 0$aFood?Biotechnology. 615 0$aAgricultural economics. 615 14$aPlant Sciences. 615 24$aVeterinary Microbiology, Parasitology and Infectious Diseases. 615 24$aFood Science. 615 24$aAgricultural Economics. 676 $a306.09676 676 $a636.089588 702 $aMcGaw$b Lyndy J$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aAbdalla$b Muna Ali$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910367258003321 996 $aEthnoveterinary Medicine$92022555 997 $aUNINA
